Since 1887, two of the oldest public schools[1][2][3] in theUnited States, theBoston Latin School andEnglish High School of Boston, have faced off in an annualfootball competition which now takes place onThanksgiving day atHarvard Stadium. The rivalry had beenthe longest-running continuous high school football rivalry in the U.S.,[4][5] until the streak was broken in the 2020 season; the game was played every year, even during World War I, the Spanish flu, and World War II, but high school football was banned in Massachusetts in 2020 as a reaction to theCOVID-19 pandemic in Massachusetts. It remains the fifth-longest all-time behindPhillips Academy versusPhillips Exeter Academy;Wellesley, Massachusetts versusNeedham, Massachusetts;New London, Connecticut versusNorwich Free Academy inNorwich, Connecticut;Germantown Academy vs.William Penn Charter School; andLawrenceville School vs.The Hill School.

Stats

[edit]

The series began with both teams' formation in 1887. Prior to 1887, English and Latin had fielded a unified team.[6]

Until the late 1960s, the rivalry was fairly even. From 1967 through 2019, Latin dominated the series, winning 50 of the 53 contests in that span, leading all time 83–39–13. Latin's dominance could be considered at its zenith in the 1970s when they held English to only 28 points for the entire decade amid a 14-gamewinning streak; two fifteen-game streaks followed. Much of the series has been decided in blowout victories by one side or the other, with 63 of the 134 games being decided by shutouts and 39 of the contests ending in 20-point or more victories. The last such blowout was in 2015. English has since regained competitiveness; the late 2010s contests were narrower losses, and since resuming play after the pandemic, they have won three of the most recent four contests (including its first consecutive victories in the series since 1963).

Ten of the games ended in scoreless ties, the last such game in 1945; ties have largely been eliminated with the introduction ofovertime.
